lose any sleep over something
to worry about (something) so much that one cannot sleep
I have Thoughts and I'm trying to put them into words, and I'm not sure I'm succeeding so I don't want to post them in public. They boil down to this:
You are not obliged to do the work of educating people on trans issues. It's fine if you don't. But there are people who do get paid to educate people on trans issues, or who will do it for free voluntarily. While you don't have to educate people, you can at least do them (and society) the favor of directing them to the people who are voluntarily doing the education, free or paid.
And if you refuse to even do that favor, don't expect the people you're interacting with to improve.
关于社交能量。
历史:
1听播客关于多重迷走神经理论,说社交能量的满足是人体神经使人平静的必备基础条件,意识到我对社交能量的缺乏,那段时间坚持每周出门社交。
2意识到对社交能量的需求,大部分是被别人激发出来,而不是我本身的需求,于是刻意断绝所有社交三天,倾听自己的声音。结束后淡定许多,不轻易被他人影响。
3收缩社交后,很长一段时间觉得不社交也没啥,不会觉得需要这个,照样平静。
4发现线下社交后,会获得一些能量涌动。
5社交的能量让我短期内更有能量去进行下一步对我更难的社交,可能形成一个正循环,实际好了能让我做到一些以往看来非常难的事情。
现状:
和人线下聊天会慢慢变得有能量和满足、平静,独处的时候又会恢复到沉沉的、孤僻的心态。
整体来说,社交带来的能量在增强,我可以在人群中坚持自我表达自己;有坚韧的心态,不会被外界所影响,除非是我自己想改变;
